Peel and grate the ginger root. In this form, it will be enough to take it with half a teaspoon. If the root is missing, you can replace the ginger with a finely chopped garlic clove to add a spicy flavor to the sauce. Wash the pepper, cut in half, remove the stalk, core and all the seeds. Cut it into small pieces. Wash the greens, pat dry with kitchen paper towels, chop as small as possible.
Preheat a frying pan, melt the butter on it, fry the chopped peppers on it until soft, add cream and grated ginger, salt and simmer everything together for another 2 minutes. Transfer the contents of the pan to the chopper of a blender and grind well until smooth.
Pour the resulting mixture into a pan, add corn flour, ground coriander and black pepper, finely chopped herbs to it. Stir well to disperse the flour. Heat the skillet to thicken the sauce, but do not bring it to a boil. Remove the skillet from the stove, pour the sauce into a separate bowl, and let it stand for a while to flavor and cool slightly.
